Enterovirus infection: ill adults
-------------------------------------------------- --------------------------
It is called "the disease of autumn". Since the massive outbreak observed during this period. But this year, raging enterovirus infection surprised even the professionals. And the reason for mass diseases traditionally called vegetables. So that matured on beds vitamins - are not always synonymous with "useful".Late August - early September, in the province season ripening of most vegetables. However, three dozen chitintsev vitamin table led to the tough hospital diet. How to assure doctors, for twenty years of practice, such an influx of adult patients is not there. Enterovirus infection in almost one hundred percent of the sick children. The reason for change, experts say, could become abnormally hot summer. Transbaikal Cossacks have weakened immunity. That is not entirely clean vegetables, but eating with dirty hands before, just now, the body can not fight the infection.
Elena Muratova, head of the department Regional Hospital for Infectious Diseases: "Patients come and keep coming. It is noted, and new diseases. Starting in August. Over the past two days off came two more patient. Condition they tend to moderate severity."
Enterovirus, in fact, is any infection that enter the body through the gastrointestinal tract. Most often the virus is transmitted through the hands, vegetables and water. The danger lies in the stability of infection to the external environment. If you treat yourself, the disease could quickly lead to a breach of the central nervous system. The first symptoms of infection - fever, podtashnivanie, abdominal pain. A universal vaccine for enteroviruses has not been developed. Although experts say, preventive measures are taught as early as kindergarten. All-you will need to thoroughly wash vegetables and hands that for the raging infection on fire red light.
